The story behind the bottle.
L'Interdit Edition Couture 2020 by Givenchy was launched in 2020 and crafted by the perfumers Anne Flipo, Dominique Ropion, and Fanny Bal. This fragrance embodies the brand's reputation for French elegance and American glamour, with a composition that balances bright citrus notes with rich florals and warm woods. The pear and bergamot opening is crisp and inviting, giving way to a heart of tuberose and jasmine that reads as both delicate and powerful. Patchouli and ambroxan add depth and warmth to the base, creating a scent that feels luxurious without being overpowering.
Apply this fragrance to pulse points and let it develop naturally over time. The citrus opening fades quickly, but the floral heart and woody base carry the scent throughout the day. It pairs well with lighter layers in warmer weather.
